Studio Pottery Stoneware Candle Holder - Susan Bennett



Rather nice stoneware candle holder by Susan Bennett, potter and gardener of Muswell Hill, North London. It's a lovely tactile shape with a very Japanese looking graduated glaze. It has been used, there is a small ring of ingrained wax around the hole. This will probably come out with some very warm water.

Lovely small posy ring style candle holder in cream glazed earthenware with brown edging. It's by Alice Palser, who now concentrates more on figurative ornamental sculpture rather than pottery. The centre is conical with a small flat base so should fit the classic, slender style of candle with the chamfered ends. In excellent condition.

Vintage Grey Lustre Candle Holder Centrepiece - Prinknash



Candle holder in the shape of a posy ring - ideal for a Christmas table centrepiece - by Prinknash Abbey Pottery. It's in their famous silver-grey lustre finish with an inpressed stamp on the base. I have to say, I have sold (and have indeed got a lot of unsold) a lot of Prinknash and rarely come across this style of mark so am unsure of the date - they used a variety over the years and are always a bit of a problem to date accurately. There is one small flea bite on the rim and a couple of other small marks but it's in otherwise very good condition.

Excellent stoneware candle holder with a pair of owls sitting on the rim. And that is it.

Great novelty item, in fine overall condition.
